Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu

Guest
Donald Hoffman, Cognitive Psychologist and Science Author, has proposed a theory of consciousness that challenges your everyday assumptions about what reality is. His argument is that our perceptions of cause and effect and what we experience in the physical world isn’t as real as you’d like to think.

The metaphor of the virtual headset he uses in these conversations with Tom explains why our experiences are limited and there are things like freewill that we never truly experience. If that’s not heavy enough for you, Hoffman bring mathematical equations into the picture to explain that all consciousness is mathematically structured.

This episode is a complete crash course into the world of Donald Hoffman and the illusion of space, time and reality. Some areas you’ll hear explored in this episode include:

  • Is Cause and effect real?
  • The God hypothesis and consciousness
  • Why your reality isn’t real
  • The Truth behind consciousness
  • How evolution hides the matrix (and what’s the red pill)
  • Testing reality & spacetime
  • Can you actually escape the matrix?

Do you think it’s possible life is a simulation and we’re in some version of a virtual reality headset?
